Talking Hitchcock

Interview with Neil Alcock-Author of HITCHOLOGY


Listen Later

You are invited back into the Talking Hitchcock screening room! Join creator and host, Hitchcock enthusiast, Rebecca McCallum with special guest author and free-lance writer Neil Alcock to discuss his new book Hitchology- A Film-by-Film Guide to the Styles and Themes of Alfred Hitchcock-a book which considers how Hitchcock uses narrative tropes and formal flourishes to create some of cinema’s most unforgettable experiences across Hitchcock’s filmography.


In this episode we discuss Neil’s book at length as well as his fascinating process for selecting a wonderful list of

the Essential 10. We also take time to discuss several Hitchcock films in detail including The Lodger, Blackmail, Rebecca, Rope, Vertigo and North by Northwest.


This was such an enjoyable, open and organic conversation that went in so many exciting directions, you may even say we found ourselves caught in an endless Vertigo-like spiral!
